Welcome to the White Marsh Ballet Academy

The Academy opened it's doors in 1997 to a small group of summer camp students, since then, the school has grown, formed it's own company in residence, and produced dancers who have gone on to the most prestigious college programs in the country.  With small class sizes and personalized instruction, the Academy is able to offer students the positive attention needed to reach their potential in dance as well as all aspects of their lives.    

The Russian method of teaching is taught at the Academy.  An emphasis on proper technique, style and confidence are  priorities at the Academy as opposed to competitions and medals. Classes are offered for children 3 and up as well as adults.  A wide range of dance disciplines are taught at the Academy including ballet, modern, jazz, tap, hip hop, variations, pas de deux, pointe and choreography development.                                                             

"To Live is to Dance...To Dance is to Live"

Academy Directors Sandra Prehoda and Shari Vazquez  both share the vision of encouraging students to achieve their best through positive instruction and encouragement.  For those students who strive to dance professionally, the Academy features a performing company in residence which gives dancers who are serious about a career in dance an opportunity to perform in a professional environment.  As former professional dancers, the directors know what it takes to make it to the next level of dance, and can guide students through the extra rehearsals, sweat, and hard work needed to achieve their goals.

INTRODUCE YOUR CHILD TO DANCE FOR LESS - White Marsh Ballet Academy strives to foster a love of dance and the arts in young children.  To that end, WMBA is offering a tuition discount for students registering for our Beginning Ballet class.  We are pleased to offer this class for $40 per month (or only $120 per installment) for new and returning students. (Additional discounts are available if dancers enroll in two classes ($80 per month).   This class is designed to provide 3 to 5 year olds an introduction to dance and the basics of ballet.  Developing an appreciation for dance at a young age is a wonderful experience that  lasts a lifetime. It also helps develop learning, listening and math skills beyond dance.

We are also offering an incentive for dancers who enroll in Dance Movement IA/IB along with a ballet class.  We are offering both classes for $96 a month.  Developing an appreciation for dance at a young age is a wonderful experience that lasts a lifetime.   Call the studio @ 410-931-3844 for more information.
